Acid-base Balance

**Acid-Base Balance** is a homeostatic condition of an organism’s body fluids in which hydrogen ion concentration, and thus pH, is maintained within a narrow physiologically optimal range by integrated buffering systems and regulatory mechanisms—principally respiratory and renal—to preserve normal biochemical and cellular functions.
